    IPC-T24IR-AS capable against the T54?

    I'm not finding much on the IPC-T24IR-AS 2.8mm, how does it compare to the IPC-T54IR-AS 2.8mm? Any comparison photos?

    Hikvision Motion Detection Event Settings Getting Reset

    I've since stopped using the mixture of the two schedules and avoid going to the configuration on the iVMS-4200 (PCNVR) at all costs. Never did get a fix in place beyond that.

    Mounting 2532 onto cinderblock wall -- how I did it

    Yeah, there's a little breakaway tab on the side there that I just slid the tubing into -- perfect fit.

    Mounting 2532 onto cinderblock wall -- how I did it

    Thanks. Going to be looking directly at it with regular frequency, so I thought I might try as much. At first I was thinking about taking a larger PVC pipe and finding a way to get it sliced lengthwise to contain all the pigtails. This worked out much better.

    Mounting 2532 onto cinderblock wall -- how I did it

    Just wanted to share with you the great external enclosure I found at Home Depot that perfectly fit the DS-2CD2532F-IS Install pics: http://imgur.com/a/CrQ0M I'm a home renter, so I attempt to keep things as nondestructive as possible. This enclosure (Wiremold V5737, painted to match the...

    Hikvision 2532F-IS - not getting any audio through

    There should've certainly be a Hikvision sticker at the base of the camera around the area where the cord connects with the base (containing serial number, firmware version, etc). It's my observation that the audio issue is only a problem for cameras that leave the factory in Chinese using...

    Hikvision 2532F-IS - not getting any audio through

    @brian.rtl -- your camera itself has a sticker showing firmware greater than 5.2.0 though, right? This seems to be the easiest way to identify if you'll have audio problems or not. Both sticker and firmware must be 5.2.0

    Hikvision 2532F-IS - not getting any audio through

    If the firmware on the sticker on the back of the camera is greater than 5.2.0 and you've got English menus, doubtful you'll get any audio. I've had to send back half a dozen from different vendors for the same issues until I received one with 5.2.0 firmware (as indicated on the camera's...

    2532 - Day mode turned pink

    This must be temperature-related. I'm living in Vegas, so the temps recently haven't really gone below the mid-40s (F) at night in recent weeks. By mid-day yesterday the camera was back to normal, and again pink this morning. Seems like a mechanical defect.

    2532 - Day mode turned pink

    2532 - Day mode turned pink - stuck IR filter? Camera has been running since mid-October, then awoke today to find that when it came out of night mode this morning the hue of the image was off. Settings are as they were yesterday and reboot hasn't resolved the issue (nor has toggling...

    Running Hikvision's iVMS 4200-PCNVR & Milestone's XProtect Go on the same machine

    So I downloaded what's being labeled as the client and did indeed have it link up as such to the PCNVR running within the network. This was the same process as the Android app. Oddly, the "client" software is attempting to run as a webserver as well, and appears to have a more refined version...

    Running Hikvision's iVMS 4200-PCNVR & Milestone's XProtect Go on the same machine

    The page you linked to is "Hikvision iVMS-4200 v2.02.00.04 (Windows)" -- is that actually the PC-NVR? HK seems to go out of their way to make this as unintuitive as possible. I pulled my version off of the FTP site.

    Running Hikvision's iVMS 4200-PCNVR & Milestone's XProtect Go on the same machine

    Disappointed A long, frustrating weekend fighting so many different aspects of these software packages. I'll have to articulate in more detail when I get some time. XProtect absolutely hates the legacy FOSCAM that I've got setup. It seemed to constantly be expecting better communication...

    Hikvision Motion Detection Event Settings Getting Reset

    Does anyone have any insight into why the schedule and alerting methods seem to spontaneously reset on the DS-2CD2032-I? I'm using a combo of intrusion detection at night and motion detection during the day to help cut down on false positives. Every so often (like today) I'll be perplexed why...

    Running Hikvision's iVMS 4200-PCNVR & Milestone's XProtect Go on the same machine

    I'm interested in getting a low-wattage recording station setup and tucked away someplace in my home. The i3 Gigabyte BRIX system caught my eye as an alternative to an Intel NUC or home-built mini-ITX machine. I've been sampling the reduced-featured XProtect Go, and while there are some...

    Android Apps + Hikvision On-Camera Motion Detection?

    I'll need to verify with a quick/temp PC-based NVR install to ensure the on-camera motion detection is alerting as it should, as I'm still at a loss (still hunting) for an Android app that can actually perform this function.

    Android Apps + Hikvision On-Camera Motion Detection?

    So, having mixed results with the iVMS-4500 app on my Nexus 5. 1 - Getting some kind of error when attempting to enable alerts 2 - In landscape orientation (to hide the rest of the UI) the 4:3 aspect ratio is lost, stretching the image Edit: The alternative iVMS-4500HD (locked into landscape...

    Android Apps + Hikvision On-Camera Motion Detection?

    Are there any Android apps out there that play well with Hikvision's on-camera motion detection? I've been a user of Tinycam Monitor (Pro) until my recent purchase of a HK 2032. Alas, the developer says his app won't be supporting this (brand's camera-driven alerts) anytime soon. I'm thinking...

    Sample night image quality - DS-2CD2032-I

    The ambient light sensors that you can buy from big box stores that combine w/ an existing bulb -- I tried several flavors of them, and all of them failed miserably and were returned to Home Depot. The integrated Phillips bulbs have been fantastic.

    Sample night image quality - DS-2CD2032-I

    I know evenings aren't this camera's strong point -- just curious if this is consistent with the quality other 2032 users are having at night.
